Colour Management

Our talented team of creative retouchers and colour
experts in London and New York combine to offer a round the clock service. Each image is assessed on it's own merit and adjusted accordingly.

In London and New York we have managed environments where clients are welcome to view GMG standard proofs, comment and markup with a member of the colour department working on a calibrated Eizo screen. We will make live corrections and you are able to tap in to our knowledge, experience and opinions.

Creative Retouching

On every publication the importance of imagery is paramount, and not every image from a photographer will be perfect! That's where a highly skilled operator can make the difference. We have a strong team with a vast array of experience, working on CGI images form Fireman Sam, HIT Entertainment, to Wired (Conde Nast) producing exceptional final products.

This is a specialist area in which you require a vast knowledge of photoshop, colour channels and the print processes. At Alta we have a team with history and experience in the print industry giving an excellent knowledge of colour channels and integrating specials within images and illustrations.
